“Time and space?” Chiara growled as she lifted Adriana into her arms. “The idiot actually asked you for time and space?” “Tell me you gave him a watch and a spaceship so he could go to hell!” Noémi grumbled, and Andrea was momentarily shocked. The twins had arrived to stay with their parents for the weekend, and the first thing they had done was pick up the little girl to take her with them. “I thought you two didn’t swear,” she muttered, trying to contain her laughter. “True, we don’t,” Chiara muttered, nudging her sister. “But it’s not fair! Zack fought so hard for you, it’s stupid for him to leave now.” Andrea took a deep breath and dropped onto the couch with her head in her hands. “Your brother is a good person,” she muttered without cutting herself, because both the twins and the Keller boys already knew. And it’s hard for good people to accept that they were capable of hurting someone. If he needs to be alone and… come to terms with everything that happened, then that’s what he should do. Honestly, it would be worse if he stayed here and ended up hating me. The twins looked at each other and shook their heads with conviction, because they didn’t even remotely believe that Zack could hate her with how much in love he was with her. —Well, when the dog comes back… because I assure you that he will come back! I sincerely hope that you make him r … She loved Zack, she understood what he was going through, but that didn’t mean it didn’t hurt. Thank you for reading on LeeNovelas.com. “I don’t know. He’ll come back when he can come back… and I’ll wait for him until I can wait for him. And if we don’t coincide… then this wasn’t for us,” she said. For the moment she had to focus on work and Adriana. Her daughter had been through a lot lately and she needed her to be her stability. The twins asked her permission to take her to Mr. Nikola and Andrea of ​​course accepted. It had been a week since Zack had left and she had barely had time to get depressed because between the baby and work they consumed all her time, but that also meant she was very tired. She took a bath and lay down on the bed, and felt her bones melt against the sheets, as if she were no longer able to bear anything else. It didn’t take long for her to fall asleep, thinking about Zack, dreaming about him, and hoping from the bottom of her heart that he was feeling better. She had no idea, of course, that Zack wasn’t feeling any better.“And aren’t you supposed to leave so you can deal with what happened?” Ben scolded him while talking to him on the phone. “How are you going to tell me now that you’re sleeping even less and you’re not eating? For starters, where are you?” his friend protested. Remember. Read this novel only on LeeNovelas.com, not on other sites. Zack sighed. “I’m in Nigeria, trying to contact a runner who broke the national record in the hundred meters, Emil Ambasi,” Zack explained. “I can imagine, working!” Ben growled uneasily. “You know me well. I had to keep my head busy and this was the best I could come up with, but the guy is good,” Zack answered trying to appear confident that he didn’t feel. “I’m just here doing my job, Ben, nothing strange.” “And wouldn’t you rather be at home with your wife and daughter?” his best friend grumbled. “If you’re going to fall out of a bed, it’d better be your own, right?” Do you think Andrea is going to see you after this? Zack tensed and swallowed. “Did she say anything to you?” “She doesn’t have to tell me what’s obvious, you left her alone again, you idiot,” he snapped. Zack ran his fingers through his hair for a moment and shook his head. “I do everything with her in mind,” he explained with a note of desperation. “We’re both going through a tough time and you know how impulsive I am. I barely sleep, I’m in attack mode all the time… what if I say something that hurts her? Huh? What if I say something that I can’t take back? No. No Ben, I better try to resolve this with myself before I try to resolve it with Andrea.” “Well, note that I’m warning you right now that you’re a stupid idiot,” he said. Don’t you miss her even a little bit?” Zack smiled desperately. “Of course I miss her, Ben…!” —So find your player and go back home before you find it empty, Zack, don’t push your luck! —he warned him. Zack took a deep breath and looked at the sky, full of stars at that moment. —You’re right, as soon as I close this deal I’ll come back. If I’m lucky tomorrow or the day after I’ll be able to negotiate a contract with Ambasi and then I’ll come back home —he decided. —Okay, keep me informed — Ben asked only to hear an explanation from Zack of why he definitely wouldn’t inform him of anything. The next day he would leave for small towns and remote communities where communicating would be more difficult for him. At that very moment the twins were saying goodbye to their mother. Only Mr. Nikola hadn’t been informed of everything that had happened in Canada, but now the Keller boys and the twins were very attentive to Andrea and the girl. Chiara and Noémi arrived back at Andrea’s house with the baby already fed and asleep, and they knocked on the door several times, but no one answered. —Maybe she fell asleep —Noémi said, and her sister frowned. —It’s just that he’s weird… he hasn’t even called all day to check on the baby.We were so focused on dad that I hadn’t noticed,” she murmured. Chiara knocked loudly on the door, but received no answer. If Andrea was really asleep, she must be sleeping like a log, so Chiara decided to climb in through a window. “Don’t even think about it. How embarrassing! Entering someone’s house without permission…” Noémi tried to dissuade her and told her to wait until the next morning, but Chiara wouldn’t listen to reason. “Don’t worry,” she told her. “I’m sure nothing bad will happen. The best thing that can happen is that she has a toy boy hidden in the closet. The worst thing that can happen is that she’s hurt, and in neither case are we going to wait until tomorrow to find out.” Cautiously, Chiara opened the window and climbed into the house, while her sister waited outside. Her first impulse was to look on the ground floor, but it was empty and she found no sign of her. Slowly, she began to climb the stairs and reached her room. Inside everything seemed normal. The lights were off and everything was silent. Chiara turned on the light and breathed a sigh of relief whenShe saw Andrea sleeping alone in the bed. “You almost scared us to death,” she scolded her, shaking her, but she barely opened her eyes and Chiara shook her harder. “Andrea…!” she called her without getting an answer. “Andrea! Andrea, are you okay?” she asked her while touching her forehead. She was very hot and Chiara knew instantly that she had a high fever. She ran downstairs to open the door for her sister to enter the house with the little girl. “Do you remember I gave you two options? Well, this is the worst.” Noémi opened her eyes wide. “Is Andrea hurt?” “I think she’s quite sick,” Chiara replied. “Call Loan right now so he can come over,” she told her. Noémi nodded and took out her phone to call him. She stayed downstairs with the baby while Chiara sat on the edge of the bed with Andrea shaking from the fever. By the time her brothers arrived half an hour later, Chiara had already put cold cloths all over her body, but she hadn’t been able to bring down her fever even a little. “We have to take her to a hospital as soon as possible,” she decided, wrapping her in a blanket and lifting her into her arms to put her in the van. “One of you is going to Mom’s house with Milo and the baby, the other is coming with me to the hospital.” Chiara decided to take Adriana and Noémi hurried after Loan in her car to the hospital. Andrea was immediately admitted to the emergency room and the doctors began to examine her hastily. They ordered several tests and gave her a drip to control the fever. “Do you know what she has?” “No, we ordered some cultures but it will take a few hours,” the doctor in charge of the case told them. “What I can tell you is that due to the persistence and elevation of the fever, it is a serious case. We will try to find out exactly what she has so we can treat her as soon as possible.” With that, Andrea was taken to a private room and Noémi and Loan were allowed to stay with her for the night. “We need to talk to Zack,” the twin declared, and a minute later, not only him, but also Milo, Chiara and Mrs. Luana from home were trying to locate him at all costs… without success.
